Tires too wide or wheels with wrong offset. It could be dangerous if the tires rub enough to get chewed up and you wind up with a blow out.

so i took a closer look at it today and notice it's only the drivers side that rubs. i still have the stock rims but i believe its the tire since both of the front tires are two different brands i figure the one on the drivers side must run slightly larger
